 The AR/VR Hub provides augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) resources as well as powerful Avizo workstations with segmentation tablets.
 AR and VR devices are available for use in the laboratory, along with high-end workstations for AR/VR development. The workstations can also be booked for using Avizo for data visualization, segmentation, and analysis. More information about AR/VR resources can be found [[arvr|here]].
+Users can log-in to any of the workstations using their KAUST credentials. Shortcuts for the publicly available applications, e.g., Avizo and Unity, can typically be found in the Desktop. Below are some guidelines for using this machine:
+  * If you need to install an application that needs admin permission, send an email to help@kaust.edu.sa to request for software installation assistance.
+  * Avoid storing your data in drive C (i.e., not in your home directory in C) because drive C has limited space and can be wiped clean in case of OS failure. If other drives are available, create a folder with your username as the name of the folder and put all your data there. You can also store and back up your data in DATAWAHA, which is accessible through the workstations.
+  * While in the AR/VR Hub, please:
+      * keep the space clean and tidy
+      * avoid eating/drinking in the space
+      * do not make unnecessary noise
+      * only use space for official work
+  * After use, make sure to:
+      * log out of Windows
+      * back up your data
+      * reconnect AR/VR equipment to their charging cables

+===== MPR Guide =====
+Welcome to the conference room. To ensure a smooth experience for your meeting and the teams following you, please adhere to the following guidelines:
+==== 1. Arrival & Setup (First-Time Users) ====
+If you have never used this room before, we highly recommend a 10-minute room familiarization session before your meeting to ensure your presentation is ready to go. **To arrange this, you must do one of the following:**
+  * Add an extra 10 minutes to your initial room reservation specifically for setup.
+  * Submit a separate ticket requesting "room familiarization" to [[mailto:help@vis.kaust.edu.sa|help@vis.kaust.edu.sa]].
+==== 2. Presenting in the Room ====
+This room is exclusively equipped with a **ClickShare CX-50 Gen 2** system for presentations. The room’s camera and speakers are directly connected to this system.
+<WRAP center round help 100%> ==== How do I present using ClickShare (CX-50 Gen 2)? ====
+**__Using the Provided Room Laptop (Plug & Play):__**
+  - Plug the ClickShare button into the laptop's USB port.
+  - Wait a moment for the LED ring on the button to turn solid white.
+  - Press the button to begin sharing.
+**__Using Your Own Laptop:__**
+If this is your first time using ClickShare on your personal device, it will not connect immediately. You must either have the ClickShare Desktop App installed, use native casting (like AirPlay, Google Cast, or Miracast), or plug in the button and open it like a USB/CD drive to run the executable file. Once the software is running and the button turns solid white, press to share.

+==== 3. Equipment Handling ====
+When your meeting concludes, please handle the AV equipment as follows:
+  * **Wireless Microphones:** Return all rechargeable microphones directly to their charging docks so they are fully powered for the next user.
+  * **Room Laptop:** Return the provided laptop to the podium (or its original position) and **leave it powered on**.
+  * **ClickShare Buttons:** **You must remove the ClickShare button from the laptop** (whether you used your own device or the room laptop) and leave it on the podium. Leaving the button plugged into the room laptop 24/7 causes system instability.
+  * **Presentation Remote:** Leave it on the podium.
+==== 4. Room Restoration ====
+The room must be left exactly as you found it. Before leaving, please ensure:
+  * All chairs are returned to the desks/tables.
+  * All catering, food, and trash are cleared from the room.
+  * The door is completely closed behind you upon exiting.
+//**Note:** You do not need to worry about turning off the displays; our team will power off the screens remotely.//
